How does Robinhood Chain stack up against other L2s? Looking at each one at their 13-day-old mark, @RobinhoodApp is: 1st in Volume, by 7.5x! - Robinhood $5.01B - @base $661M - @arbitrum $367M 1st in Fees, by 3x - Robinhood $22.7M - Base $7.77M - @blast $2.36M 2nd in Revenue, 93% lower than leader - Base $3.4M - Robinhood $247K - Arbitrum $163K 4th in TVL, 84% behind leader - Blast $1.02B (remember airdrop farming?) - OP Mainnet $353M - Base $182M - Robinhood $159M Takeaways: - Memecoin traders generate volume/fees, not TVL - Very high volume/TVL ratio (capital efficiency) - Low revenue/fees ratio = lack of economic distribution
